While planning our wedding, I had tons of ideas for making the entire event handmade. On that list? Handmade items for the flower girls and ring bearers. Oh how I’d dreamed of adorable ring bearers in super cute hand-knit vests! But unable to find a good pattern (free!) that I could use for a wide variety of boy (and girl) sizes, I chose to make my own.

While the vest is knit up on size 6 needles, it knits up fast and furious, offering up a quick gift for the little ones in your life!
